Getting The Glamour Groove On

Not every model I get to work with is as awesome as Melissa and Kristen. We bonded instantly and had a great session together. You'll certainly gather that by the amount of laughter in nearly every shot! But truly, the session was really all business... (yeah, right.)
For Melissa's look I chose to recreate a photo I saw in a magazine where the model had similar features. I used soft taupes to fill the lids of the eyes complemented by a pretty pink on her cheeks and lips. The foundation used was Bare Escentuals. I wasn't as happy with the application of the foundation and blush as I usually am - I think my poor kabuki brush has seen its last days. Kristen's makeup was inspired by a photo I saw of Winona Ryder with incredibly smoky eyes and pale lips. With the high flash of the camera I could have even smoked it out even more. All in all a very successful session. The ladies looked marvelous and we had a great time capturing some hot photos.
